George,

 GP> By the grace of God, I'm Canadian. . .

  I've talked to several ham radio operators in Canada. I saw a blooper
where the preacher said he and his wife visited a foreign country...
Canada. He also noted "they visited places that no longer exist". Their
travel agent is likely one who would get them a beachfront hotel in
Orlando, as "Florida is a very thin state". :P

 GP> I have no choice -- I'm paralyzed on one side, so tend to spend almost
 GP> all my time seated, in my wheelchair when I'm out & about.

  Bless your heart. I'm trying to stay out of a wheelchair...a cane and
a walker is bad enough.

 GP> The Sallies is one charity I actually trust to do as they say (spend
 GP> the money received in the communitry they get it from, for services for
 GP> the homeless & substance abuse addicts.)

  Sadly, most addicts don't want to give up their habits.

 GP> I've been known to see someone pick through a stack of big bills, to
 GP> find the smallest, to say, "Oh, come on, drop in at least a $20, to say
 GP> thank you  to God you're in such decent shape!"

 GP> Most laugh & agreeably comply. . .  :D

  Friendly persuasion. :)

 GP> I lost my job at the salvation army soup kitchen last night.
 GP> All I said was hurry up some of us have homes to go to...

  Sounds like the guy who didn't last a day as a Wal-Mart greeter.
This woman walked in with 2 disobedient brat kids, and he asked her
if those were her kids. Irritated at him, she growled that they were,
and he said something like "I'm someone would sleep with a woman like
you". :P

 GP> Went into a Salvation Army store and saw a radio. It was turned up full
 GP> blast but the volume knob was missing. It only cost 1 dollar.
 GP> I said boy I can’t turn this down.

  Never look a gift horse in the mouth...he may have halitosis.

 GP> Gatorade should run some kind of charity xconcert promotion where they
 GP> raise funds to help preserve endangered species of alligator.
 GP> Gator Aid.

  It was the University Of Florida who originally created that. It does
provide electrolytes, but I don't drink it anymore.

 GP> I won $6million in the lottery and have decided to donate a quarter of
 GP> it to charity....
 GP> I now have $5.999,999,75c left.

  Sounds like Milburn Drysdale of The Beverly Hillbillies.

 GP> I just received a call from a Charity asking me to donate some of my
 GP> old clothes to the starving people around the world...
 GP> I told them, "Anyone who fits into my clothes, certainly isn't
 GP> starving. "

  Really.

Daryl
